1 Central and Eastern Europe Statistics 2005 An EVCA Special Paper November 2006 Edited by the EVCA Central and Eastern Europe Task Force
2 About EVCA The European Private Equity and Venture Capital Association (EVCA) was established in 1983 and is based in Brussels. EVCA represents the European private equity sector and promotes the asset class both within Europe and throughout the world. With close to 950 members in Europe, EVCA's role includes representing the interests of the industry to regulators and standard setters; developing professional standards; providing industry research; professional development and forums, facilitating interaction between its members and key industry participants including institutional investors, entrepreneurs, policymakers and academics. EVCA's activities cover the whole range of private equity: venture capital (from seed and start-up to development capital), buyouts and buyins. The EVCA Central and Eastern Europe Task Force EVCA created the Central and Eastern Europe Task Force in 2003 as a platform to launch initiatives for the benefit of EVCA members in Central and Eastern Europe. These initiatives are specifically aimed at the development and promotion of private equity and venture capital in the region. The Task Force published Central and Eastern Europe Success Stories in October 2004 and Central and Eastern Europe Statistics 2004 in October In addition, the Task Force is responsible for developing Central and Eastern Europe topics of interest in other EVCA publications and conferences.

5 Introduction 3 This document provides an update of annual activity statistics for the private equity and venture capital markets of Central and Eastern Europe in Similar statistics for 2004 and 2003, respectively, were published in EVCA's Central and Eastern Europe Statistics 2004 (October 2005) and Central and Eastern Europe Success Stories (October 2004). The statistics contained here are based on the market approach wherein EVCA compiles information to show activity in a particular country, rather than the industry approach that shows the activity of fund managers based in that country. EVCA believes this gives a more accurate picture of the overall investment trends and activities in the Central European markets due to the predominance of regional funds and fund managers. All data provided is based on replies to the EVCA annual statistics survey presented in the EVCA Yearbook 2006, with some additional updates. For the purposes of this publication, Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) comprises the countries of Bulgaria, Croatia, the Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Romania, the Slovak Republic and Slovenia; and for the first time in 2005, Bosnia and Herzegovina, and Serbia and Montenegro.
6 4 Fundraising Fundraising for CEE totaled an all-time record of 1.29 billion in 2005, an increase of 161% over 2004 levels. This achievement included the largest ever dedicated CEE fund raised with 650 million of capital commitments. As the vast majority of private equity funds raised for CEE were for the region as a whole and not for any specific country, we no longer present fundraising on a country by country basis. Rather, we show the total pool of capital raised. Table 1: Fundraising for CEE Private Equity by Source of Funding, (Amounts in th) Private Equity Raised by Source % of total Independent Funds Raised in Year 370,620 1,120, % Amount Raised by Captives 108,008 51, % Subtotal New Funds Raised 478,628 1,172, % Realised Capital Gains 17, , % Total Funds Raised 496,019 1,293, % Geographical Breakdown of Private Equity Raised % of total Domestic 72,847 48, % Other European 313, , % Non-European 109, , % Total Funds Raised 496,019 1,293, % Source: EVCA Figure 1: Fundraising for CEE Private Equity, (Amounts in m) 1,400 1,200 1, , Source: EVCA Please note that the data presented above is limited to capital raised by funds with CEE as their target region. The data does not include those funds that may allocate a portion of their capital to CEE but whose primary focus is elsewhere.
7 Investment Activity 5 Reported private equity investments across the CEE region totaled 508 million in 2005, some 7% below the level of However, there were a few dramatic changes in the amounts invested within specific countries. Bulgaria showed a notable decrease, with no reported investments in 2005 compared to a record amount in Hungary, which received the largest investment pool totaling 147 million, observed a 21% increase over With the exception of Bulgaria, Poland and Latvia, investment activity in all other countries increased. The conclusion is clear private equity fund managers in CEE are looking across the region for attractive opportunities and invest where the most rewarding projects are available. This explained the decline in Bulgaria in 2005, where two of CEE's largest private equity deals to date were completed in More than 85% of the region's investment activity in 2005 was concentrated in Hungary, the Czech Republic, Poland and Romania.

9 Types of Investment 7 Buyouts represented the largest stage category in CEE in 2005 and increased as a proportion of total investments compared to Taken together, buyouts and replacement capital transactions represented 72% of total investment value in CEE in 2005, similar to the total of these two categories in all of Europe. Expansion capital transactions in CEE were proportionally higher than in Europe in 2005 while early-stage deals significantly lower.

10 8 Exits Exit activity (measured by cost of investment) increased significantly in 2005 compared to 2004, by some 244%. Trade sales dominated in 2005, with a number of consortium-led telecom transactions sold to industry players throughout the year. Public market exits remained reasonably strong, increasing more than 70% over Although secondary sales to other private equity houses increased substantially in 2005, the base was very low and compared to Europe as a whole, this was not a prominent exit route in CEE in Poland was the single largest exit market, accounting for 25% of total CEE exit activity, followed by Romania. Poland, Romania, the Slovak Republic and the Czech Republic together accounted for 77% of exit activity in Table 5: Exits in CEE vs Total Europe, 2005 (Exit Value at Investment Cost) (Amounts in th) Total CEE % of Total Total Europe % of Total Divestment by Trade Sale 293, % 6,746, % Divestment by Public Offering 44, % 2,658, % Divestment by Write-Off 13, % 1,406, % Repayment of Principal Loans 8, % 6,964, % Sale to another Private Equity House 25, % 5,476, % Sale to Financial Institution % 1,206, % Sale to Management (Buyback) 15, % 1,592, % Divestment by Other Means 20, % 3,790, % Total Divestment , % 29,843, % Total Divestment ,561 19,562,478 Source: EVCA Figure 4: Divestments at Cost by CEE Country, (Amounts in m) Czech Republic Hungary Poland Romania Slovak Republic Bulgaria Baltic States Other* Total CEE * Croatia, Slovenia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia and Montenegro Source: EVCA
